State-Wide Basis For
Citizenship Day
ATLANTA, Sept. 27 (CNS).—Cele
bration of Citizenship day upon Oct. 12
will serve to introduce to the public the
thousands of young Georgians whose
twenty-first birthdays have occurred
within the past year.
The plans for Citizenship day programs
in schools throughout the state and in
many cities of Georgia are going forward
rapidly. Since the date chosen coincides
with Columbus day, a national holiday,
state-wide observation of the plan is fa
cilitated.
The plan for ap annual citizenship
program, participated in by the ‘new
citizens’ of the state, originated with
Ralph Ramsey, secretary of the Georgia
Education association and director of the
Better Education for Georgia Movement.
Civic organizations and national patriot
ic societies, as well as schools and
churches, are co-operating in the plan
for the celebration.
Educational Leader Endorses
Program To Promote Safety
(By Georgia News Service.)
ATLANTA.—RaIph L. Ramsey, secre
tary of the Georgia Education associa
tion, this week endorsed the series of
safety articles made available to the
state press of Georgia through Georgia
News Service, and commended it for
bringing out the “two major factors in
safety,’’ the tremendous amount of hu
man life lost through accidents and the
importance of proper training and safety
education.
Referring to the series of articles as
“a very fine instructive piece of work.”
Mr. Ramsey said that in his mind ‘‘the
values that will come from it to the
people of Georgia are beyond calcula
tion.”
“I am impressed with the way you
bring out the two major factors in safe
ty,” he said. “One is the tremendous
amount of human life that is lost thru
accidents, and the other that most of
these fatal accidents are avoidable and
could be avoided by proper training and
safety education.”
“I heartily endorse this procedure in
reaching the public mind of our state in
order that our people may become safety
conscious.”

most of those headaches, that bil

constipation.
To disregard these symptoms may
bring on a host of other discom

SECOND NATIONAL LIVESTOCK SHOW TO
BE FEATURED AT SOUTHEASTERN
FAIR AGAIN THIS YEAR
I
s ’W’ - :
-
Ferdinand, the Bull, has nothing on these famous cows, which will
again this year be a part of the Second Annual National Livestock Show
to be held at the Southeastern Fair, in Atlanta. Judge John S- Candler’s
Guernseys are famous over America for winning blue ribbons, and he
does not worry about national competition. “Since the beginning of the
Southeastern Fair in 1915,” says Judge Candler, “I have stressed the
importance of livestock in the South. 1 am glad to see Mike Benton
feature a National Livestock Show and bring before the people of the
Southeast the finest specimens of the breeds most suitable to our section.
I have been honored in being named Chairman of the Livestock Commit
tee of the Southeastern Fair from its inception, and I truly believe that
the salvation of the Southern farmer lies in the building up of herds
of pedigreed stock and departing from the habit of depending on cotton
ar tobacco as the only means of a livelihood.” This year, with the
Second National Livestock Show, and the National Poultry Show, and
the mammoth agricultural machinery exhibit on the plaza, the South
sastern Fair is truly an exposition of the trend that Southern progress
should take to establish this section as the most prosperous and self
mstaining in the world.
Sunday School Lesson
THE INFANCY OF JESUS.
International Sunday School Lesson for
Oct. 1. 1939.
GOLDEN TEXT: “And they shall
call his name Immanuel; which is, be
ing interpreted, God with us.’ —Matt.
1:23.
(Lesson Text; Matthew 1 and 2.)
With this lesson we begin a six
months’ study of the Gospel of St. Mat
thew. The aim of this study of Mat
hew’s Gospel is to learn of the teachings
of Jesus concerning the Kingdom of
Heaven, and to ascertain the significance
of those teachings for the life of today,
both in personal character and social
relationships.
Having been one of the Apostles, Mat
thew was an eye-witness and related
facts from his own experience. We know
very little definitely of his life after the
crucifixion but it is generally accepted
that he spent fifteen years preaching and
teaching in Palestine before going to
Ethiopia, Maedonia, Syria, Persia and
other regions.
Matthew’s book was written primarily
for Jews and it is said to have been in
spired by the fact that he was leaving
Palestine after fifteen years’ service. The
book is not arranged chronologically but
the contest is grouped according to the
topic. References to Old Testament pro
phecy are numerous, the author pointing
out the fulfillment thereof in Jesus. The
book is noteworthy because approximate
ly half of it is devoted to quoting the
teaching of Jesus, including five of his
addresses, the most familiar one being
the famed Sermon on the Mount.
Matthew gives us a genealogy for Je
sus carrying us back to David and Abra-
ham, not to Adam as Luke does, tracing
the descent through the line of Joseph.
It is interesting to note that, included in
this descent, there appear four women,
of whom two were of heathen ancestry
and birth, and three rose to spiritual
eminence after having grievously sinned.
It is also interesting to note that
while Matthew's Gospel was written pri
marily for the Jewish people and shows
much research and study in connecting
the ancient prophetical utterances with
the life of Jesus, it does not confine his
teachings and ministry to that race
alone. The closing verses of Matthew’s
Gospel contains the Great Commission
as given by the Savior himself to his
disciples that they go out to all people.
Our attention is directed in this open
ing lesson to the visit of the wise men
to the infant Jesus. Tradition numbers
these astrologers and philosophers of
their day as being three, some adding
that they were from India, Persia .and
Arabia, respectively. Having seen a
■ strange star they were led to seek the
new Savior. In 1604 the great astrono
mer Kepler saw the planets Jupiter and
Saturn in conjunction, and shortly aft
erward a bright star burst forth in the
constellation of the Serpent. Calculations
show that just before the birth of Jesus
these same two planets were in conjunc
tion. \
Having found the new King, with the
aid of Herod, the wise men presented
him with their gifts but, warned by a
dream, they would not return to tell the
wicked Herod where they 7 found him.
Herod had oppressed the Jews and was
fearful of opposition, so he sought to
kill this possible rival. As a result, the
holy family fled into Egypt, where tra
dition says they joined other Jewish ref
ugees near Cairo, and stayed for some
thing over a year and only returned to
Palestine upon Herod’s death. However,
because they feared Archelaus, Herod’s
son, they did not stop in the territory

SCREEN STARS
In the hope of maintaining quality
productions and preventing general sal
ary reductions because of the loss of
foreign revenue from England and
France, Hollywood is eliminating as much
extra unnecessary expense in the making
of pictures as possible. Expensive loca
tion trips are being abandoned, produc
tion schedules speeded up and the num
ber of surplus “big names” in casts cut
down . . .
Robert Donat is to co-star with Nor
ma Shearer in “Pride and Prejudice,”
the film production of Jane Austen’s nov
el to be made soon by M-G-M . . .

does not like directing women, excepts
Claire Trevor, who, he says, is one of
the better actresses in Hollywood. *

Filming is to begin on or about Octo
ber 15 . . .
Now that “A Day at the Circus” is
completed, the next episode for the Marx
brothers is to be “The Marx Brothers in
Europe,” which is sure to be a scream ..

Extra Session Talk
Revived At Capitol
ATLANTA, Sept. 27 (GPS).— They're
still talking about an extraordinary ses
sion of the Georgia legislature on Capi
tol Hill. This talk was revived the other
day when the presiding officers of both
branches of the general assembly appear
ed at their offices.
President John B. Spivey, of the sen
ate, said he was in Atlanta on personal
business and for a few conferences, while
Speaker Roy V. Harris, of the house of
representatives, said he was en route
home from a visit to Washington.
Automatic expiration of the stabiliza
tion law on Jan. 1 was advanced as an
other reason for an extra session of the
legislature before that date by fiscal of
ficers of the state.
IN MEMORY.
R. C. Bulman, long resident of Chat
tooga county, died at the family home
in Spring Creek community Thursday
night, Aug. 31, 1939. Bro. Bulman was
born in Spartanburg, S. C., on Feb. 14,
1853. He was converted at an early age
in life and lived a true Christian life.
Bro. Bulman was not a public* man,
but led a very quiet, God-fearing life.
He was a man who obeyed the laws
of God as well as man, was always cheer
ful and friendly to all.
Was true to his Lord, wife, children
and grandchildren and prayed that all
would meet him in heaven where there
is no pain.
H was a kind and obliging friend and
neighbor. To know him was to love him.
To those who knew him so well and
so long, it was soul-inspiring to be in
his presence. A look of joy and peaceful
ness radiated his face, and living to such
a ripe age with such a cheerful, cou
rageous spirit, was truly the faith that
each of us should long to manifest to
others.
In the death of Bro. Bulman, our com
munity has lost a very dear friend and
neighbor, and a true citizen, yet we re
alize our loss is heaven’s gain.
We extend our deepest sympathy to
the bereaved ones in the loss of their
father and grandfather.
